April 10,2008 :: The phones go marching one-by-one, hurrah...

My head has been crammed full of work this week, and therefore not so full of posting ideas. Fortunately, I came upon a fantastic list on Mighty Girl that has restored my faith in this week. (A side note: That's a blog I check in with quite often, because she's smart and creative and has a sense of grace about what she chooses to say and how she chooses to say it that floors me. Something a lot of blogs I read simply don't do, to the point that I'm sure some of them enjoy the hate mail and the controversy more than the opportunity to broadcast their lives freely to the world.) That's another topic entirely though.

Anyway, the very awesome proprietress of that blog has been running through what she's calling 'mighty lists' - 100 things to do in her life, and 100 "worth it" instances--things she hopes to see during the oft-fabled "life flashes before your eyes" moment. I mean to make both lists, but I think first, I need to pass the idea along (it's incredibly humbling and inspiring to rummage through your memory this way. At least, I think so), and I also think I need to start with the second list first. I think I need to know what I've already loved so much before moving on to what I'd love to do next.

Rocking the House

A blog about 675 square feet of Atlanta, Georgia. Established 1886. Welcome to my house.

Southern Constitutional began in January 2008 as a two-city walking blog/collaboration between me and my very awesome friend Audrey in Muncie, Indiana. Our effort was only marginally successful. Actually, it kind of tanked miserably. But we did learn something: that while that kind of blog doesn't necessarily work for us, there are other kinds that do. This year, I will be writing about renovation, reclamation, and architectural redemption. Audrey, on the other hand now writes about marvelous geekery at Geeks Have All The Fun.
